Natural Impotence Treatments

A variety of drugs to treat impotence or erectile dysfunction problems are widely prescribed today. But certain biological remedies can bring about the same result without any effects on the side, naturally.

  1. Ginkgo Biloba and Aniseed

    • Known to enhance blood circulation, particularly to the penis region, ginkgo biloba is an herb effective for the treatment of impotence caused by deficiency of blood in the penis. Taken daily for a number of months, this natural remedy can bring about effective erections. You could also take aniseed or anise, which are known to enhance male libido through the presence of several estrogenic compounds. Though estrogen is a female hormone, apparently extra doses can lead to androgenic or male hormone effects as well.

    Cardamom and Ginger

    • The aromatic aphrodisiac spice cardamom contains cineole, known to stimulate the central nervous system and to arouse sexual desires in men. Using cardamom in foods might be effective for impotence.

    Ginseng and Saw Palmetto

    • A natural provider of vitality, ginseng is known to enhance muscle stamina and stimulate nerves. Ginseng can enhance male libido. The ripe fruit of the saw palmetto is also thought to be an aphrodisiac for the male sexual system.

    Fenugreek and Pumpkin Seeds

    • Due to its component of diosgenen, a compound known to have sex-hormone-like effects on the body, fenugreek is another herb that can be used to deal with impotence. Pumpkin and sesame seeds may also enhance general sexual vitality.

    General Measures

    • Eat a balanced diet to avoid constipation. Eat plenty of fresh fruits and grains, and avoid too much caffeine. Kidney function problems should be treated promptly, as they can affect sexual function. Get adequate exercise and rest. Stress, nervousness and anxiety can increase erectile difficulties, and should be dealt with.
